I've told you all before that I don't have much street cred. I mean, I listen to country and contemporary Christian stations so I'm not really up on today's Top 40 music scene. I have no idea what Jay-Z looks like, am more than slightly afraid of Snoop Dog, and say sentences like "I don't mind a song with 'some raps' in it." My friends at work decided that they needed to intervene so that I don't keep embarrassing them with my ignorance so they gave me a list of stations that I had to begin listening to immediately. Since then I've been listening to Top 40 stations every day and have to admit that I feel cooler already. Plus, as a bonus, I've found some songs that I really like.

I've also found some songs that make me laugh out loud in my car. Seriously - some of the lyrics in these songs are RIDICULOUS. For instance . . .

Tik Tok - Ke$ha (please note how hip-and-with-it I am for remembering that she spells her name with a $ . . .):Now, the dudes are lining up cause they hear we got swaggerBut we kick ‘em to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger

Wait. Really? Don't you mean "We kick 'em to the curb IF they look like Mick Jagger?" I mean, have you SEEN him? Can I have your rejects?

Nothin' on You - B.O.B.baby you the whole packageplus you pay your taxes

Well, that was a stretch. Seems like he could've come up with something better than that. But, hey - looks like he has his priorities in order . . .?

Bedrock - Young Money:My room is the G-SpotCall me Mr. Flintstone - I can make your Bedrock.

Wow. I just . . . - I don't . . . - Did he . . . - wow.

Sexy Bitch - David Guetta:She's nothing like a girl you've ever seen beforeNothing you can compare to your neighborhood whoreI'm trynna find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful

[Well . . . you could start by not using the word "whore" in a song about her. But that's okay. Rookie mistake - anyone could make it. Keep going . . .]

The way, that booty movin' - I can't take no moreHave to stop what I'm doin', so I can pull up her closeI'm tryinna find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful

umm..okay Catchy, you earned some cool points for sure, but then I have to take them back because it's spelled Tik Tok. Gah. Plus, Snoop is real sweet now. He is like a really tall, really skinny teddy bizzle. What? Now, I lost cool points!!!

OMG so funny! i went to the JZ concert here in Denver on monday and I soooo wish you were there! It would have been great just to see your face as the songs were played and the pot was smoked! I do miss your everyday, in person commentary!

I think my favorite one was the guy who gave props to the girl (see what I did there?) for paying her taxes. I start thinking about this apparent hardened criminal element he must be running around with--Martha Stewart, maybe? I mean, it's like saying, "You're awesome because you don't steal stuff from the gas station." Thanks! Glad to know that the standards bar isn't quite so high.

About Me

I'm a lawyer and a Christian. Stop laughing.
I'm single but content with where God has me right now. I have the greatest nieces and nephews and am the world's best aunt - at least that's what I've trained them to say.
I love to cook and bake. (If you know any single guys, pass that on . . .)
I love cold weather - but only if my jeans are fitting me.
I love Kraft Macaroni & Cheese - like in an unnatural way.
I love Little Debbie. Again, in an unnatural way.
Mexican food is a part of my soul. (Huh . . . now I'm starting to see why my jeans don't fit sometimes.)
I love to write about my life and my observations and I love YOU for reading along!!
